Let me begin the inspiration parade :) The newest set from Shirley is so awesome. We all needed a perfume based stamp set and she made it :)

To make this card I stamped, fuzzy cut and colored the flowers with Sharpie Markers and leaves with Spectrum Noir Markers. On the card base I added a patterned paper which inspired me on the colors. I took a white card stock and cut the lower edge using Lacy edges and Borders dies. I adhered it all together and finished the card by stamping the sentiment.

Here's another look...

Now the card that I am gonna show is from the Shery Russ Designs... did you know the girl in this set was drawn by Shery's Dad years ago. What a proud moment for Shery to convert it into a stamp. Such a cool and trendy looking girl :)

To make this card, I took a patterned paper panel and taking cues from it I inked the three die cut flowers. Keeping the girl as the focus I assembled it all together :) Besides the new set I have used Trendy Spring Bloom dies. Here is one more look...

I had to do some more water coloring and I always love the look of No Line water coloring. I stamped the image on a watercolor card stock with some light shade of Distress ink multiple times. I the fuzzy cut it. Next I did some water coloring. Adhered a wood grain patterned paper on card base and the added the water colored panel.
